The Nebraska football team just needed a little “dusting off” according to AD Bill Moos. That and other kernels in this morning’s Go Big Read.

When the Nebraska football team finished 4-8 last season, there were some people who wondered if the program was dying. New AD Bill Moos told gathered Husker fans yesterday that it wasn’t dead at all, it was never dead.
